Terrible last possession only using 14 seconds of clock on a 3 and out. Should have went into half up 28-7.

This. Take your shot on 1st down, you don't get it then go run, run or run, screen but keep that clock moving. Make Baltimore use their timeouts. The two pass interference calls on the two Baltimore TD drives are both incredibly weak. However, Bates has a chance to knock down 3rd and 15, goes for the INT and misses. Then Fitzpatrick drops an INT with lots of room to run afterwards - though he easily could have been called for pass interference there. The referee inconsistencies are the worst part.

With that TD before half, I'm flashing back to last season's Pittsburgh game on Monday night. Feels like another Bengals primetime collapse is looming.

Hope none of the injuries are serious. None of them looked bad, but Johnson, Price, Mixon (though he did return) Kirkpatrick and Williams all left the game.

Looks like Johnson will be out a few weeks with mcl strain.

Price with sprained ankle, hoping he is available next week. Kirkpatrick looked like he cramped up (you could see raven trainer mouth “it’s just a cramp” on tv) and Mixon came back, so hopefully a good sign. Haven’t seen anything on Williams. Anyone heard an update on Preston Brown?

The defensive line is stout. As good as they’ve had in decades. Burfict will help at times but he’s a moron. Kirkpatrick is a clown. Ross should join the Diamond League. Too early to get overly excited with inconsistency on O and Merv’s total butchery of clock management. It looked like Hue was calling plays at the end of the first half.
Stay healthy and stabilize the offense and they can roll through the division sans Bell.

Price with sprained ankle, hoping he is available next week. Kirkpatrick looked like he cramped up (you could see raven trainer mouth “it’s just a cramp” on tv) and Mixon came back, so hopefully a good sign. Haven’t seen anything on Williams. Anyone heard an update on Preston Brown?

Sounds like Mixon will miss at least two weeks with arthroscopic knee surgery to clean out his knee. Ugh.
